Written by three eminent authorities in urologic pathology, this volume is a practical, thorough, and superbly illustrated guide to bladder biopsy interpretation. It begins with normal anatomy and variants of normal histology and then provides comprehensive, current information on all lesions, tumors, and tumor-like lesions.
Tables are included to aid in differential diagnosis. Coverage includes the latest World Health Organization and International Society for Urologic Pathology classification system for bladder urothelial neoplasms.
A bound-in CD-ROM contains over 800 full colour images covering the entire spectrum of common and rare lesions, and includes a quiz mode that is ideal for board exam preparation.
